Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN WOLF'S RAIN! (Only Kijo, Shaje, Kurune and Mika)

Chapter Two: Meeting Kurune or is it Kijo?

The group of wolves, with much discussion over the topic, decided to go in the restaurant.

"If this place has people that are cannibals, were giving them the runt." Tsume said as he pushed open the door. Toboe didn't have any time to say anything because Kiba opened the doors so fast that the whole group felt a gust of hot air come at them.

The placed seemed calm enough. There was a stage on the left and a bar in the front. The tables were mostly filled with drunken men who were betting on how much they could drink.

"Who did that wolf tell us to ask for?" Hige asked looking around.

"Are you folks interested in getting something to eat or are you just going to stand there and look around?" asked a blonde haired bar tender. She had soft green eyes and her expression demanded a response.

"We're here for a girl named Kurune." Hige spoke up and took a seat at the small bar. There were many open seats for most of the costumers were occupying the tables.

"Ah you're here for that poor soul, she's in the back. Lemme get her." The bar tender walked around the counter to the back of the restaurant.

A few other male bar tenders were waiting on the few people sitting around Hige. Toboe and Tsume sat down next to him but Kiba kept standing.

It was a few minutes before Kurune came into view. She was wearing a long white work dress and her black hair was tied with a single black ribbon

"I heard that you are looking for me." She pulled her hair down so it flowed past her waist.

"Yes, we heard from a wo-" Toboe didn't get to finish the word because Kurune held his mouth shut.

"Come in the back we'll talk about it there." She led them into the back and shut the door, then locked it. An automatic light flipped on. The wolves and Kurune took a seat.

"What was it you wanted to talk to me about?" she asked and turned on another light.

"Well, I just heard the no one claimed the dog that we left at the adoption center." Shaje said as she poured Kijo's coffee into a mug then placed it in front of him. He was reading the newspaper at the table. He looked up to his wife and smiled.

"I already know why don't you call over there and see if it's alright to get him later today?" Kijo asked, ruffling his hair then taking a sip of coffee.

"Alright just as long as you don't change your mind once we've committed to it." Shaje picked up the phone and dialed the adoption center's number.

"You know I keep to my word Shaje." He said with a gigantic grin on his face.

"Hello, this is Shaje.........yes I'm interested in buying the dog that we- pardon, I didn't quite hear that....oh" her normally happy tone lowered to a depressed one, "Oh I'm sorry.......yes thank you..." she hung up the phone and hung her head.

"What's the matter?" Kijo asked and stood up to comfort his wife.

"Well the dog that we turned in was......well he was adopted."

"Oh I'm so sorry."

"It's nothing. There was some kind of connection between me and that dog. I can't really explain it."

"Don't worry I bet we'll be able to visit her."

"Her?! How do you know the dog is a female?" Shaje spun around to face her husband.

"Ahh.......so that's why you are looking for me. You are in need of food and a place to stay? Is that correct?" Kurune asked. She sat down and crossed her legs then leaned back.

"Yes, but we will be leaving as soon as possible." Kiba stated and looked around.

"Why? What are you searching for?"

"How do you know that we are searching for something?!" Toboe asked in an interested manor. He leaned forward to soak up all the information.

"Not every day do I see wolves in this town. The last time I saw one here was about four years ago. I was about thirteen then. I only saw him for a few seconds, but he was beautiful white wolf. I know it sounds ridicules but I wish that people weren't so afraid of wolves. Then we could see them more and they wouldn't be in danger of being extinct." She looked at the wall in thought.

"So Kurune, why do you want wolves to be abundant? Most people kill wolves just for the pleasure. What do you have with wolves?" Kiba asked and stared at her for an answer.

"Well it's hard to explain."

"Well Shaje, we can still visit the new owners."

"Yeah, I guess you're right."

There was a loud crashing sound from their bedroom and then a yelp.

"What was that?!" Shaje asked, she looked down

"I don't know, I'll go and take a look." Kijo walked over to the bedroom door with Shaje yelling after him, "Be careful!"

He opened the door and...........................
